Leasing Capital Equipment

A finance lease or "full-payout lease" is a contract under which you commit to payment over a period of time (the "Primary Lease Period") of specified sums to repay in total the capital cost of the vehicle or asset together with the our interest charges. We have many years of experience in this sector and can lead you to the best finance value around.

A typical finance lease will last from two to five years. At the end of the Primary Lease Period, the lease will typically go into a Secondary Lease Period during which you pay secondary rentals for continued use of the vehicle or asset. Alternatively we will appoint you as our agent to sell the vehicle or asset. You are responsible for maintenance and insurance of the vehicle or asset.

The Lender retains ownership of the vehicle or asset throughout both Lease Periods and are therefore able to claim capital allowances on the Equipment and pass on any benefit to you. 

The Benefits

•Fixed monthly payments
•Matches payments to the life of the vehicle or asset, thereby easing cashflow
•No need to pay the VAT on the cost of the equipment up front
•Rentals are an allowable expense against your assessment of Corporation Tax
•Typically lease rentals are lower than Hire Purchase payments because we can factor in the benefit of capital             allowances.
